Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana reacted to the attack on Minister Avi Dichter by a man protesting the proposed legal reform.

"Minister and MK Avi Dichter, head of the General Security Service during the Second Intifada, was attacked this morning by a man wielding the state flag, which he has worked and continues to defend all his life. I expect all elected officials, wherever they are, to condemn the incident and calm the spirits for the sake of the entire country," said Ohana.
